We need to know how to calculate compound interest to solve this problem. The present value is $2577.32
Compound interest is the interest that is earned on interest. Inorder to calculate the compound interest we need to know the principal amount, the rate of interest, the time period and how many times the interest is applied in per time period. In this question we know the amount after 9 years and the rate of interest is 9.5% and the interest is compounded quarterly. We will use the formula for compound interest get the principal value.
A=P[tex](1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nt}[/tex]
where A= amount, P= principal, t=time period, n= number of times interest applied per time period, r=rate of interest
A=$6000
r=9.5%
t=9 yrs

Given that two cars are 188 miles apart, travelling at different speeds, meet after two hours.
To Determine: The speed of both cars if the faster car is 8 miles per hour faster than the slower car
Solution:
Let the slower car has a speed of S₁ and the faster car has a speed of S₂. If the faster speed is 8 miles per hour faster than the slower car, then,
[tex]S_2=8+S_1====\text{equation 1}[/tex]It should be noted that the distance traveled is the product of speed and time. Then, the total distance traveled by each of the cars before they met after 2 hours would be
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{distance}=\text{speed }\times time \\ \text{Distance traveled by the faster car after 2 hours is} \\ =S_2\times2=2S_2 \\ \text{Distance traveled by the slower car after 2 hours is} \\ =S_1\times2=2S_1 \end{gathered}[/tex]It was given that the distance between the faster and the slower cars is 188 miles.

Find the solution to following system of equations A+ 10C = 54 A +9C = 50 A. A=10 C= 4 B. A= 14 C= 4 C. A=4 C= 14 D. A= 10 C= 6
Answer:
B. A = 14
C = 4
Explanation:
The system of equation is:
A + 10C = 54
A + 9C = 50
So, we can solve for A using the first equation:
A + 10C = 54
A + 10C - 10C = 54 - 10C
A = 54 - 10C
Now, we can replace A by (54 - 10C) on the second equation, so:
A + 9C = 50
(54 - 10C) + 9C = 50
54 - 10C + 9C = 50
54 - C = 50
54 - C + C = 50 + C
54 = 50 + C
54 - 50 = 50 + C - 50
4 = C
Then, we can replace C by 4 and calculate A, so:
A = 54 - 10C
A = 54 - 10(4)
A = 54 - 40
A = 14
Therefore, the solution of the system is:
A = 14
C = 4

A Slope = 2, y-intercept = -4.5 5 B Slope = y-intercept = 3 2 © Slope = 2, y-intercept = -5 D Slope = 2 5 y-intercept = 3
Explanation:
The equation for a line in the slope-intercept form is:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.
We can find both with only two points from the line. The slope is:
[tex]m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}[/tex](x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are points on the line.
With only one of these points, once we know the slope, we can find the y-intercept by replacing x and y by the point. For example:
[tex]y_1=mx_1+b[/tex]And then solve for b.
In this problem we can use any pair of points from the table. I'll use the first two:
• (3, -4.5)
,• (5, -9.5)
The slope is:
[tex]m=\frac{-4.5-(-9.5)}{3-5}=\frac{-4.5+9.5}{-2}=\frac{5}{-2}=-\frac{5}{2}[/tex]And the y-intercept - I'll use point (3, -4.5) to find it;
[tex]\begin{gathered} -4.5=-\frac{5}{2}\cdot3+b \\ -4.5=-\frac{15}{2}+b \\ b=-4.5+\frac{15}{2}=-\frac{9}{2}+\frac{15}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:

an airplane flew for one hour and landed 100 miles north and 80 miles east from its origin. what was the distance traveled, speed and angle of direction from its origin?
The distance traveled by airplane is 180 miles.
The speed of the airplane is 3 miles per minute and the angle of direction from the origin is 51.34°
The airplane landed 100 miles north and 80 miles east from its origin and it flew for one hour.
Then, the total distance traveled by airplane will be:
= 100 miles + 80 miles = 180 miles.
The speed can be defined as the distance traveled by the total time taken.
Speed = distance/time
Speed = 180 miles/ 1 hour
Speed = 180 miles/60 minutes
Speed = 3 miles per minute
The angle of direction from its origin will be:
tan (x) = 100 miles/80 miles
x = tan⁻¹ ( 100/80)
x = tan⁻¹ ( 10/8) = tan⁻¹ ( 5/4)

the remainder when f(x)is divided by x-3 is 15. Does f(-3) =15? explain why or why not
We will see that the function f(x) is:
f(x) = 15*(x - 3)
Evaluating it in x = -3 we can see that:
f(-3) = -90
Is the statement true?We know that when we divide f(x) by (x - 3), the quotient is 15. (that is the statement given in the question)
so we can write the equation:
f(x)/(x - 3) = 15
And we can solve this for f(x) as if it were a variable, then we get:
f(x) = 15*(x - 3)
Now, if we evaluate the function in x = -3 (this is replacing the variable x with the number -3), we will get:
f(-3) = 15*(-3 - 3) = 15*(-6) = -90
So the statement:
f(-3) = 15
Is false

h(x) = x2 + 1 k(x) = x-2 (h - k)(3) = DONE
We are given two functions:
h(x) = x^2 + 1
and k(x) = x - 2
We are asked to find the value of:
(h - k) (3) (the value of the difference of the two functions at the point x = 3
So we performe the difference of the two functions:
(h - k) (x) = x^2 + 1 - (x - 2) = x^2 + 1 - x + 2 = x^2 - x + 3
So, this expression evaluated at 3 gives:
(h-k)(3) = 3^2 - 3 + 3 = 9
One could also evaluate what was asked by evaluating each function independently and subtracting the results of such evaluation:
h(3) = 3^2 + 1 = 10
k(3) = 3 - 2 = 1
Then, the difference is : h(3) - k(3) = 10 - 1 = 9

Solve this system of equations by elimination. Enter your answer as an ordered pair (x,y). Do not use spaces in your answer. If your answer is no solution, type "no solution". If your answer is infinitely many solutions, type "infinitely many solutions".
5x + 2y = -12 (a)
3y + 5x =-8 (b)
First, write (b) in the ax+by=c form:
5x + 3y = -8 (b)
Now, subtract (b) to (a) to eliminate x
5x + 2y = -12
-
5x + 3y = -8
__________
-y = -4
solve for y:
Multiply both sides by -1
y=4
Replace y=4 on (a) and solve for x:
5x + 2 (4) = -12
5x + 8 = -12
5x = -12-8
5x = -20
x = -20/5
x = -4
Solution: (-4,4)
*You will use the following scenario forquestions 1-4*On the Wechsler Adult IntelligenceScale a mean IQ is 100 with a standarddeviation of 15. You may assume thatIQ scores follow a normal distribution.What percent of people have an IQscore less than 90?*Write your answer as a percent andround to 2 decimal places*
The Solution:
Given:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=90 \\ \mu=100 \\ \sigma=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]By formula,
[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{90-100}{15}=\frac{-10}{15}=-0.6667[/tex]From the z-score tables:
[tex]P(Z\leq90)=0.25248[/tex]Convert to percent by multiplying with 100.
[tex]0.25248\times100=25.248\approx25.25\text{\%}[/tex]Thus, the number of people that have an IQ score less than 90 is 25.25%
Therefore, the correct answer si 25.25%
30 randomly selected students took the statistics final. If the sample mean was 84, and the standard deviation was 12.2, construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean score of all students
The confidence interval for the mean score of the 30 randomly selected students is: 99% CI {78.26, 89.73}
What is confidence interval?Confidence interval is the range of values for which which is expected to have the values at a certain percentage of the times.
How to construct a 99% confidence intervalGiven data form the question
99% confidence interval
30 randomly selected students
mean sample = 84
Standard deviation = 12.2
Definition of variables
confidence level, CI = 99%
mean sample, X = 84
standard deviation, SD = 12.2
Z score, z = 2.576
from z table z score of 99%confidence interval = 2.576sample size, n = 30
The formula for the confidence interval is given by
[tex]CI=X+Z\frac{SD}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] OR [tex]CI=X-Z\frac{SD}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
[tex]=84+2.576\frac{12.2}{\sqrt{30} }[/tex]
=[tex]=84+2.576*2.2274[/tex]
= 84 + 5.7378 OR 84 - 5.7378
= 89.7378 OR 78.2622
= 89.73 to 78.26
The confidence interval for the mean score of all students is 78.26 to 89.78
